At Alehar, as an international corporate finance boutique, we specialize in Fundraising, M&A, Fractional CFO Team and Fractional Investment Team services for startups, medium-sized businesses and investors. Our mission is to help business leaders get the corporate finance support essential to building extraordinary companies.
Why we need you
Our ability to support clients and grow Alehar and the broader Lanmea ecosystem depends on having simple, reliable internal finance and operations foundations. As we add more entities and projects, recurring finance, accounting, payroll, compliance, and documentation work needs a dedicated owner. A Finance & Business Operations Associate will anchor these foundations, keep our internal systems organised and on track, and also plug into selected client finance work and initiatives across the ecosystem so that we can operate smoothly and continue to scale.
Why should you join us
- You will work directly with founders across Alehar and the Lanmea ecosystem.
- You’ll get exposure to corporate finance, investment banking, operations, and client work.
- You’ll have the chance to shape processes, systems, and tools rather than just follow them.
- If you’re interested, you can also contribute to business development, client finance support, marketing, and special initiatives.
- We value ownership, transparency, and learning giving you room to grow into a stronger finance, ops, or business ops professional over time.
Here’s What You’ll Be Doing
You’ll be at the heart of our internal operations, ensuring that finance, admin, and compliance run smoothly across entities, while supporting selected client and business initiatives. You won’t be doing all of this on day one, but over time, this role will give you wide exposure across finance, operations, and business building.

- Comfortable with Google Sheets / Excel and finance/accounting concepts

- Ability to handle multiple entities and moving parts without losing structure

It would be nice if
